ok, so frame by frame analysis answered my question on how this setup can work in the first place is that it completely breaks the trigger rules OR spellslinger operates on different rules compared to other triggers

the detonate dead explosions come from the exact same corpses that volatile dead comes from

this means that all spellslingers are literally, not virtually, literally instant at the same exact frame leading to you being able to double dip on the corpses

you can confirm this yourself by examining animations, also you will notice leftover corpses on your desecrate which should have been used by detonate dead if it followed normal rules, but since it used corpses that were already consumed you will still have leftover on your desecrate granted you don't have the enchant or awakaned spell cascade

i don't know if this behaviour is intended or simply the engine limitation but it might possibly be a bug or an unintended exploit, granting the popularity of these builds i'm pretty sure GGG is aware of it but i'd hate if it was "bugfixed" mid league or something

edit: another explanation that would follow all the current game rules we know and make this behaviour expected is that corpse explosion triggers from spells are considered the same effect, and it's impossible to trigger both explosions, so detonate dead takes precedence and volatiles explosion simply never even goes off, since spellslinger would make both of these actions simultaneous only 1 action can be applied and that is the stronger one which is Detonate Dead

also on the note of inconsistent VD ball spawning, i figure that it's simply a targeting delay issue, sometimes desecrate animation doesn't finish before VD triggers so it searches for other relevant corpses around resulting in less than maximum amount of balls and sometimes having "blank" casts where it spawns no balls at all, it's probably affected by ping and server tick rate which makes it inconsistent

no, my initial concern was that corpse limit would use up all the corpses and there's no corpses left for detonate dead so detonate dead would end up being redundant or at best use only 1 corpse if you don't have awakened spell cascade linked to vd or vd enchant in which case it would have 0 corpses left

Not sure if anyone else was looking at this thinking of league starter, just keep in mind he is reaching 75% block and 75% spell block, with a 1.3 Rumi's Concotion, which has 30% attack block and 20% spell block. This is going to be much stronger than the same flask in the league so you may need to go glancing blows which is going to make you much squishier.

It's not the end of the world or anything, just know you're not hitting 75%/75% natural block with the build. I think it goes down to 69%/54% ish range, which is still good wihtout glancing blows.
